The program consists of a series of initiatives to promote tolerance and respect for diversity through curriculum and textbook reform and pre- and in-service teacher training. To date it has focused on ways in which Bank-financed programs can help education systems to address the needs of all students and to promote social cohesion. Activities have included information dissemination, through workshops and papers, as well as financing for pilot programs in Colombia, the Lao People's Democratic Republic, Nigeria, Romania, and Sri Lanka. These pilots are designed to put in place strategies that can be scaled up either in the pilot country or in other programs.en-USCC BY 3.0 IGOACCESS TO EDUCATIONADULTSAPPROACHES TO EDUCATIONBASIC EDUCATIONBOSNIA HERZEGOVINACHILD LABORCITIZENSHIP EDUCATIONCIVIC EDUCATIONCIVIL RIGHTSCOMMITMENT TO EDUCATIONCOMMUNITY PARTICIPATIONCOMPARATIVE EDUCATIONCRITICAL THINKINGCURRICULACURRICULUMCURRICULUM DEVELOPMENTDECENTRALIZATIONDISADVANTAGED GROUPSDRAWINGEDUCATION FOR ALLEDUCATION PROGRAMSEDUCATION PROJECTSEDUCATION SECTOREDUCATION SERVICESEDUCATION STRATEGYEDUCATION SYSTEMSEDUCATIONAL CURRICULAEDUCATIONAL MATERIALSEDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITIESEDUCATIONAL PROCESSESEDUCATIONAL QUALITYEDUCATIONAL RESEARCHEDUCATORSELEMENTARY EDUCATIONELEMENTARY SCHOOLEQUAL OPPORTUNITIESETHNIC GROUPSFREE EDUCATIONGENDER INEQUITIESGIRLSHIGH SCHOOLHIGHER EDUCATIONHIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTIONHUMAN DEVELOPMENTHUMAN RIGHTSINCLUSIVE EDUCATIONINCLUSIVE EDUCATION SYSTEMSINDIGENOUS LANGUAGESINTERVENTIONSLANGUAGE OF INSTRUCTIONLEADERSHIPLEARNINGLEARNING ENVIRONMENTLEARNING MATERIALSLEARNING RESOURCESLETLINGUISTIC DIVERSITYLITERACYLITERACY EDUCATIONLITERATURELIVING CONDITIONSMIDDLE EASTMOBILITYMORAL EDUCATIONMULTICULTURAL EDUCATIONNATIONAL ASSESSMENTNONGOVERNMENTAL ORGANIZATIONSPAPERSPEDAGOGICAL PRACTICESPROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENTQUALITY OF TEXTBOOKSREADINGRIGHT TO EDUCATIONSCHOOL AUTONOMYSCHOOL MANAGEMENTSCHOOL REFORMSCHOOL SYSTEMSCHOOL SYSTEMSSCHOOL TEACHERSSCHOOLSSOCIAL DEVELOPMENTSOCIAL SCIENCESSOCIAL VIOLENCESPECIAL SCHOOLSSUB-SAHARAN AFRICATEACHERTEACHER EDUCATIONTEACHER TRAININGTEACHERSTEACHINGTERTIARY EDUCATIONTEXTBOOKTEXTBOOK CONTENTTEXTBOOK SELECTIONTEXTBOOKSTRAINING METHODSTRAINING PROGRAMSUNEQUAL ACCESSURBAN SCHOOLSVIOLENCE IN SCHOOLSYOUNG PEOPLEWorld Bank10.1596/978-0-8213-6465-9
